PROHIBITION IN ATLANTA GA.

PROHIBITION IN ATLANTA GA.
Last Monday night there gathered
at the opera house in this city, nowith-
standing the threatening aspects of the
weather. a large and appreciated audi
ence to listen to the testimony of Capt.
Edward s. Gay,o Atlanta, Ga. There
being considerable dispute as to the
benefit of prohibition in Atlanta. our
people were interested to know what
he would say-by the way Of paren-
thesis we wish to say that Capt. Gay
is an insurance man; that he came
here strictly on business, and that it
was only at the earnest solicitation of
q number of citizens that he agreed 10
speak. He has also a number Of
friends in this city who have known
him for years, and who testify that he
is thorough gentleman, successful
business man and good citizen, and
they too, desired to hear him tell how
prohibition worked in Atlanta.
The speaker was introduced by Hon.
J. M. Duncan in few eloquent and
we'll chosen remarks, and was received
with a storm of applase. Capt. Gay
began his speech by saying that he
had opposed prohibition in Atlanta,
Ga, that he had opposed prohibition
in that city by his voice and his vote.
But now, that the accursed traffic had
been voted out, and he had been an

effects, never so long as he was per-
mitted to live would he again fail TO
cast his vote against traffic so de-
trimental and ruinous to the best in
terests of the people.
He said that in Atlanta, thousands
of workiugmen whose hard earnings
went for whisky and beer, were to-day
buying and paying for homes; that
were hundreds of them formerly
went staggering home on Saturday
evening outside of a quart of whisky,
to meet their wives and children who
were suffering the pangs of hunger,
they now go home loaded with cloth
ing and provisions for their families.
He said that the antiprohibitionists
predicted the ruin of Atlanta when
whisky went out, but on the contrary
she had prospered more than ever
known before; real estate was con-
stantly increasing in value; trade was
better in all lines; drinking intoxicat-
ing liquors was becoming unfashion-
able and dIsreputable, crime had de-
creased so per cent, half the funds for
the support of the poor remained in
the treasury at the close of last winter
for the first time in the history of t.
lanta; that city four per cent. bonds
fioated at par, and that there is a clean
balance of S225, 900 in the city treasury
at the end of the first year of prohibit
ton. To make long story short,
Capt. Gay said that prohibition had
benefited every interest in Atlanta ex-
cept the whisky business. He held bis
audience for more than an hour and
was frequently interrupted by outbursts
of applause. He spoke throughout like
a man telling the truth about what he
knew.-Iyter Democrat.
